Herod commands that the guards be put to death and goes down to Caesarea; he is eaten by worms and dies

헤롯이 파숫군들을 죽이라 명하고 가이사랴로 내려간 뒤 충이 먹어 죽음

Acts 12:18–23: as soon as it is day, there is no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter. When Herod has sought for him and doesn’t find him, he examines the guards, then commands that they should be put to death. He goes down from Judea to Caesarea, and stays there. Herod is very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon. They come with one accord to him and, having made Blastus, the king’s personal aide, their friend, they ask for peace, because their country depends on the king’s country for food. On an appointed day, Herod dresses himself in royal clothing, sits on the throne, and gives a speech to them. The people shout, “The voice of a god, and not of a man!” Immediately an angel of the Lord strikes Herod, because he doesn’t give God the glory. Then he is eaten by worms and dies.
